The RN41XV module provides drop-in, certified Bluetooth connectivity for existing systems using 802.15.4 modules. Based on the popular 2 x 10 (2mm) socket footprint often found in embedded applications, the RN41XV offers a complete wireless solution for customers looking to migrate to a standard protocol without modifying existing hardware. The RN41XV is built upon Microchip's RN41 low power Bluetooth module. The module has an embedded Bluetooth stack and supports multiple interface protocols and profiles including the commonly used SPP and HID profiles.
